Street's Corner: Too Fit For Duty
By: JT Street

An Air Force officer misses out on her dream assignment because she is too fit.
Kathy Rakel started doing triathlons to increase her chances of getting into the Air Force's Special Operations.  However, after setting an Air Force Academy record on her first try, the military encouraged her to hold off on pursuing her Air Force career - and pursue a spot on the U.S. Olympic Team instead.  JT Street follows her as she prepares for her new assignment - on ''Street's Corner.''
